Nutritionists and Dietitians near Northvale, NJ

Hello! I am Judith Gabrielle Rabner MS RD Nutritionist, and I have reached a point where I hear from my clients time and time again, having many say that I have changed their lives. My goals as a RDN provider are to make my clients feel better, look better, and have a better quality of life, as I help them resolve their concerns through working together as a team. My clients describe me for this written piece as: "Available, Flexible, Caring, Dedicated, Thorough", in addition to clinical excellence. Since this is the case, I have continued to learn the many critical roles that nutrition and food play in all of our lives.

You are my client if you are motivated to make a change for yourself. Are you all in? I give you what you need to be successful in your body composition goals, performance goals, and general health goals. This is anything but the quick fix. I mean that. I'm not a fad diet or a meal plan. After working together I want you to tell me, "I don't need you anymore". When you are able to say those words you will feel liberated and in control of your life. Nutrition doesn't need to be as hard as it's been made out to be. I'll help you silence the noise and focus on what will support you personally.

For about 20+ years, many patients have come to me with issues around emotional/stress eating, weight management, skin problems, digestive health concerns, mood/energy shifts, blood sugar irregularity, and lab abnormalities. Usually, the culprits of these issues include disordered eating habits, choosing foods that aren’t fueling you, inactivity, poor hydration & stress. Does this sound like this might be your vicious cycle?

Do you want to lose weight permanently while at the same time feel better? Eating the right foods is the key to success. Karen can teach you how to eat healthy while dropping unwanted pounds efficiently. You will learn to eat foods with high nutrient density and manage your weight without dieting. If you are trying to lower cholesterol, reduce your risk of heart disease or hypertension, manage your diabetes or pre diabetes, kidney disease, Colitis/Crohns, or have food allergies, Karen can assist in your goals. Superior nutrition is the most powerful medicine.

Why would someone want to work with me? What makes me different? I believe that each client is a person not what ails them at the time they are seeking help. Clients I treat as individuals and there is not one protocol or approach for each person. I usually see clients who have already tried mainstream medical care and are just not finding the relief they sought. They know there is more work to do however, they are possibly not being heard by their current healthcare providers or not at their optimal state of health that they know they can feel or once felt.

Do you or your loved one struggle with eating or feeding issues like an eating disorder, disordered eating, or picky eating? You deserve to enjoy eating or feeding without any food-related anxiety, stress, guilt, or shame. I help clients, from early childhood to adulthood, overcome feeding and eating challenges including picky eating, restricted/limited food intake (ARFID), disordered eating, and eating disorders (level 1 outpatient). I also see clients for food allergies, elimination diets, digestive health, and prenatal nutrition.

Nutrition is powerful. It can have a positive or a negative impact on your health. Together, as a team we will develop a plan to get you eating the foods that will make you feel better (or even great). To harness the power of nutrition, we work to understand what foods are right for you. Good nutrition is not only about elimination but often about education. Many chronic diseases; diabetes, hypertension, obesity, autoimmune diseases, leaky gut, digestive and weight issues can be conquered or mitigated by your food choices. The changes you see while still enjoying delicious foods will amaze you.
